OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

A rugged design for sea operations, which allows the ASW units to transmit and receive at the right depth to maximize the detection of extremely quiet submarines.

The system is designed to deploy the arrays at optimum depth to continuously survey 360 degrees with a well covered water column, thus, overcoming harsh propagation conditions and surface-layer problems inherent to Hull-Mounted Sonar.

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS

System features:

For platforms > 1500T

Operated either from a single dedicated console or from CMS Multi-Function Consoles

A single winch to tow both the transmit Towed Body and the receive array for fast and safe handling
